Good habits start with the 'Savings Gang'

At AIB we recognise the importance of a child's first savings account, being a milestone in developing a relationship between children and the bank. Parents want to get their children into the habit of saving and help them build better financial planning skills for their future. They need them to understand the concept and value of money. To guide parents and kids through this growing up process we have developed the 'Savings Gang'.

The 'Savings Gang' are a group of characters designed to help teach and encourage children about saving. To meet the 'Savings Gang' visit www.aib.ie/thesavingsgang .
